Blue Skies is an album by the saxophonist Stan Getz, recorded in San Francisco in 1982 but not released on the Concord Jazz label until 1995.[1] [2]

Reception

The AllMusic review by Alex Henderson stated: "True to form, Getz makes the listener marvel at his tone throughout the album; without question, he had one of the sexiest, most gorgeous tones in the history of jazz. It's unfortunate that this excellent material went unreleased for 13 years".
